Engineer. Dubious vegetarian. Aspiring Nonna. Hiker. Still trying to figure out what I want to be when I grow up. In the meantime there's boardgames. Also it's possible I may enjoy egg salad just a little too much.

Crossroads diners are some of my favorite places. Rise and Shine, Morriston ON. It is a Carribean jerk place so, naturally, breakfast is doubles and eggs over easy.

The hot sauce is INSANE.

One of the things I have discovered in skyrim on this go round that make me giggle uncontrollably is that if I am mining ore, and the camera shows my follower, the follower's head bobs slowly up and down in time with the mining pick. Like the world's most sedate AC/DC fan.

I am replaying Skyrim (I know it's old, I came to it SUPER late, but even still this is probably my third or fourth attempt.) This time I started waaaaaay off in the corner of the map and have built myself up to level 40 without even a whisper of the main questline.

not to fear she's already seen ferris and breakfast club a heap of times. I am less sure about 16 candles.

20 year old amelia has suggested watching "an 80s movie" tonight. so far all I can come up with is "Trading Places" or "Better Off Dead". I love TP but it's as problematic as it is amazing, and I am concerned Better Off Dead won't be as good as I remember.

Call 'em out folks.

As best you can, ignore him.

So I am trying to figure out whether to go all in with Blue sky and abandon the other platforms that I'm currently on, chiefly Facebook. The thing I've realized is that I still make heavy use of FB messenger. What's the word on the bsky chat tool?

but then again the last time I saw them I was probably in my mid teens. This has made me think about how untrustworthy my memory of media consumed as a younger person probably is (see also: Krull).

Reading a bio of Robin Williams, and it's stepping through ALL of his movie work in detail; the general tenor is nothing really worked and no one thought he was bankable until "Good
Morning, VietNam". I remember liking Moscow on the Hudson, and Garp, at least...

Since 2025 is shaping up to be a year of multiple crises at different scales, I decided to throw in a minor midlife crisis. (The other divot is a healed hole I abandoned in my 20s). Studio was interesting, I have not felt that deeply out of place in a good while.

but...but what about the 376 games already in my steam account, forlornly uninstalled and unplayed?

TFW you have suddenly become bored of your current video game obsession and don't know where to turn next. Fighting the urge to start skyrim again.

I never really engaged with Twitter; I had an account for a long time and passively followees...mostly based on tags I saw in stupid memes elsewhere on the internet. Then Musk happened and I cancelled my account.

I am not convinced this modality is gonna resonate. For starters I am pretty long wi
